InstallScript Custom action

I have created a dll c++ custom action that is creating a new dialog. I am trying to start this custom action through installScript function and I am unable to.

I am sure this is easy. but I am new in InstallScript and I can't find any answer on the net.

Thanks!!!! Ben

Solution

  • I found the solution.

    Define your custom action in Custom Action and Sequences (in the installation designer). Then go to the script where you want to use your and use

    MsiDoAction(ISMSI_HANDLE, "YouActionNameAsDefined")

    Hope this was helpful.
